In a very large bowl, cream the butter with the sugar. Beat in egg yolks three at a time. Stir in pineapple with juice and vanilla essence. Add flour mixture in 3 parts alternately with orange juice to the creamed mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Stir in walnuts.

In another bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold egg whites into batter and gently stir in the fruit. Divide batter among tins. Smooth the tops.

It has been a week sence I made these cakes. These cakes do get better with age. They are a little on the dry side.I have them soaking in grape juice. Unable to get currents so I used 3 extra cups of dates instead and I am not sorry I did the extra dates worked out very well. Added 1/4 tsp cloves, 1/4 tsp ginger,1/4 tsp nutmag and cut back to 1/4 tsp mace. A lot of work!!! But it was worth it.

make this 4 batches of this recipe every year for Christmas presents for friends and family, and it is well received. Instead of orange juice, I substitute double amount of Cointreau.
